September 1 – San Gimignano

As many of our friends at Stanley enjoyed their first day back to school we visited San Gimignano, a lovely little walled town in Tuscany. Alas, no gory relics, but we enjoyed seeing the church of St. Augustino and the bellevedere anyway. Back at Tavernelle, we spent the afternoon swimming and visiting the local pasta fresca to purchase our dinner of fresh made ravioli – perhaps the best ravioli I’ve had to date. Mmmm, the food is good here.
